Subject: RE: ext4 corruption on 17TB file system during power cycle test
We actually ran into problem in our real power cycle testing. We used fsck -p option and then mount the ext4 file system but during test after the power cycle, kernel found EXT4 error and then force ext4 mount become read only. Do you think the problem is inside kernel?
Thanks

What version of e2fsprogs? That'd be the critical first question.
There was at least one log recovery fix that went in post-1.42.3:
commit 3b693d0b03569795d04920a04a0a21e5f64ffedc

e2fsck: fix 64-bit journal support
64-bit journal support was broken; we weren't using the high bits from
the journal descriptor blocks! We were also using "unsigned long" for
the journal block numbers, which would be a problem on 32-bit systems.

1.42.4 was just released yesterday, you might retest that version.
